Bare: a Pop Opera (in depth analysis)

Thank you to John Griffin, Jenna Leigh Green, Keili Lefkovitz, and Payson Lewis for sitting down and talking with me about this amazing musical.
I do not OWN any of the promotional footage used. The rights belong to Warm Butter productions, Moster Pictures, and the original production of Bare:

Bare was the Spring Awakening before there was a Spring Awakening. It deserves to be on Broadway. Preferably directed by Michael Arden

[@jacobking5144]

michael arden was actually peter in the original off-broadway production

[@wdrh03]

@@jacobking5144 yeah I know. Hence another reason I wrote his name because he was Peter

[@evahesse9507]

Bare is one of my all-time favorite shows simply because it feels so real. As a Catholic, the message of finding God in other places outside of the church hits really hard. "A Quiet Night at Home" will forever be my sob song because I can relate so deeply to a girl who looks in the mirror and can't love the body she sees looking back.

This is so cool! There's not NEARLY enough analysis and discussion about Bare online so thank you so much for putting in all this effort! Also. It was great getting to hear about all those experiences from everyone.

This is incredible wow. I’m a huge bare fan and this video means so much to me. Thank you.

[@jacobking5633]

There is not a single piece of art in existence that has impacted me as much are bare. Thank you so much for making this.

[@stevenmichaelreyesmashups8302]

Dang, I had never heard of this musical until now and I’m bummed that it didn’t make it further. Would’ve loved to see it

[@kaiskornerart]

the fact bare never went to broadway is such a crime, its such a beautiful show

[@Emma-mj3pz]

I love Bare and hearing about Damon Intrabarlato made me sad but also happy because of how much the show seemed to mean to him and all the original cast members (loved the interviews btw)

[@hamsteroids]

rip damon❤️thank you for writing such a beautiful piece of theatre, Bare helped me finally come to terms with myself and come out to my family and I’m so so grateful.

[@madeleine.exists9207]

That's so cool how you got interviews with cast members! Bare is a show that means a lot to me; thank you so much for this video.

[@beluud5870]

Dude, that intro was amazing

[@anounka8220]

I really wish they'd made a film version of this - just those opening moments in your video makes me wonder if it had ever been a concept! hearing the backstory was super interesting, although so had to hear about the creator. Thank-you so much for posting :)

[@alotto1]

This was amazing! I love the interviews, they made me both insanely happy and sad. They seemed so comfortable with you as well which is a true compliment. This musical means so much to me and I relate heavily to Jason so it's good to hear from John Griffin. Thanks for the video x

[@hamsteroids]

I love bare so much and t’s so cool you got to speak to all these great people!! thank you for this video :))

[@guillermohuar]

Man, thanks a lot for this video! I've always thought that this musical has the podtential to be a boom like Rent was, I have no idea why there wasn't morr productions in recent years, it's a wonderful musical with a really powerful message.

[@judgemario]

Thank you for this! It's a great play and so fun to get the skinny from the actors directly.

[@wlliamson53]

That beginning part.... did you make this, or was that archive footage?

[@lgm14]
